=== March meeting ===
At the PC meeting in March, the PC will make the following decisions, based on the output from the OCS system (abstract pdf files and an Excel index file):
* Discuss doubtful submissions
* Reject unacceptable abstracts
* Decide whether similar presentations should be joined in a single presentation
* Decide the which presentations will be orals (using the author’s Presentation Preference as a guide, and taking into account the review observations)
* Decide the distribution of Invited/Plenary, Oral, and Poster presentations over the 5 conference days (the time schedule)
* Assign the final Conference ID to each abstract (I1.001, O2.015, P2.030, etc.).
Essentially, the outcome of the meeting is the above-mentioned Excel file, with one column added for the Conference ID.
